Lockwood, for legislation enabling women to practice in United States Courts, was received and referred to the Judiciary committee The Deficiency Appropriation bill was taken up and amended. Pending its discussion the Senate Adjourned, out of respect to Representative Melli'h, deceased. 11mm The' Banking committee reported a substitute for the Senate Currency bill. A motion to suspend the rules and take it up for consideration was lost. The death of Representative Mellish, of New York, was announced by Mr. Tremain, and appropriate remarks were made by Mrssrs. Tremain, Worid, Kelly, Lawrence, Hoar and Cox. A committee was then appointed to superintend the funeral and the ilouse adjourned. ' The letter of General Sherwood in favor of inflation has been published in pamphlet form, and large numbers of it are being circulated by the inllationistf. It makes some of the best points thai have been made by any writer or speaker on that Bide. Toledo has been trying for a year to get a cow ordinance passed all the Toledo papers are full of editorials and communications on the subject. Not that Toledo cares anything about enforcing an ordinance against cows-r-it is the bullfrogs they areajlafler;. A State Convention of Ohio journalists will assemble at Amboe Hall, this city, on Friday next. The prospects are flattering for a large convocation of quill-drivers, and the meeting is expected to result in the transaction of business Important to the profession. ' The Toledo Blade claims fifty thousand population for Toledo, and avers that there are now 430 buildings in process of erection in the different wards, "on a somewhat hasty count." If it hadn't been for the panic, the Blade goes on to say, the population in 1875 would have been 50,000. . We do not know what the Blade means by it that is what it says. " The population to-day will fall little if any below 50,000 ;" and, " Those who have estimated the population of the city in 1875 at fifty thousand, will find their expectations realized, unless business should sutler even greater depression than at present." In pursuance of our object to get at the facts, by publishing the views of reputable citizens from all the different stand poiuts, we publish a letter from a citizen who has no connection with the Nelsonville strike, either as Operator or Miner, or even indirectly, as a trader ib the wares used by either side. The writer of the article is well known to us by repute, and we feel safe in vouching for his fairness and candor, so far as it is possible for one to be impartial who has a pride in the prosperity of the Valley, and a warm interest in its good name. We desire at this time only to supplement his article by one suggestion : There seems to be an unreasonable prejudice against some of the Operators who are also dealeis in articles of consumption and supply for the miners, on the part of other dealers, because these latter seem to suppose that their business is injured by the rivalry in their particular line of trade. Kow, it is safe to suppose that the Operators, by reason of having large capital at their command, may be ible to furnish the miners at lower rates than some of the older dealers; but this is not only no disadvantage but a positive benefit to the miners, and is a great help to the prosperity of the entire commnnity. In addition to this, it seems an error on the part of the rival small dealers to suppose that their business can be destroyed by competition of the kind. Competition can destroy their business only on the presumption that they are inferior in enterprise and capacity. Competition does not destroy legitimate business it simply enlarges and fosters it Increased facilities do not destroy bus! ness they create new business. , East End Knllrvad. We learn thaf an effort is about to be made to revive the project of the Columbus and Ferrara railroad, which bids fair to be a success several of the leading capitalists of the east end of the City having taken hold of the matter with a determination to put it through. u-.L. , The Atlantic and Lake Erie company recently closed a contract with B. B; Me. Donald & Co., a responsible ; firm, jfor the completion of that cdmpany's road from New Lexington, in Perry county, to Salina, in Athens county. That company's line is i nearly ; all graded between Pleasantville, ,1'airfleld County, and Bremen (the junction with the Cincinnati and Muskingum Valley road), so that it only remains to make arrangements to build the line from Columbus to Pleasantville, and we shall have a continuous line from Columbus to Salina, passing through thirtyone miles of the Great Vein coal field. It is understood that the Atlantic and Lake Erie company stand ready to make satisfactory running arrangements with the Columbus and Ferrara company to reach the coal fields, or that that company will extend its road to Columbus, if that plan be preferred by our citizens. Should the Atlantic and Lake Erie construct the proposed extension from Pleasantville to Columbus, such action will not involve any abandonment of the direct line to Toledo via Granville, Mt. Gilead, etc., although the Columbus extension may be as important as the through line to the lakes. It is understood that the President and Directors of the Atlantic and Lake Erie com pany are ready to fix the amount of money (to be invested either in stock or bonds) which will be required of Columbus to insure the extension to this city. Is New Mexico Ready for Admission ? Washington, D. C , May 22, 1874. To the Editor of the Ohio State Journal : '. The House yesterday took up and, after a short debate, passed the bill for the admission into the Union of New Mexico. Mr. Elkins, the delegate from that Territory, made a somewhat elaborate speech in favor of the bill, advocating its passage on the ground of treaty stipulations made at the time of the cession of the Territory by Mexico to the United States; the claims of population, intelligence and loyalty of the people; and the great material resources of the Territory which, according to his logic, cannot heexpected to develop under a territorial form of government. The discussion gave Mr. Poller, of New York, an opportunity to deliver a most remarkable speech on otir form of govenniueiit and the tendency to centralization of power. Mr. Potter is an aflected gentleman, who parts his hair in the middle, believes in State sovereignty to itB full extent, and also in peaceable secession. His remarks called out a repudiation of his views from Cox, as a representative of the Democracy. The real, sound objections to the admission of New Mexico at this time were well, though briefly, stated by Mr. Hoar, of Massachusetts, but met with little consideration. It is to he hoped that the bill will be defeated in the Senate. New Mexico had, according to the census of 1870, a population of ahout 1)1,000, about twothirds of the number required to entitle her to one member of Congress under the present apportionment. While possessing, according to the statements of those interested in her admission, vast undeveloped resources, her actual, available and tangible wealth falls far below that of other territories not yet admitted, which, besides, have a class of population much better adapted and entitled to the privileges of a State organization. The people of that Territory are in hardly any respect fitted to form a State which Bhull be a sister to Ohio or auy other Stale now organized. The population is very largely Mexican and Spanish, having changed little since the cession to the United States. The conduct of public business in the territorial Legislature is now largely con-dueled through interpreters, the members being unable to understand or speak the English language. In the free schools of the Territory, so much vaunted by those who yesterday advocated the passage of the bill and seemed to possess great zeal with little knowledge, the Spanish language is to day generally spoken and taught. Ignorance prevails to an alarming extent. A few years since a proposition to establish a free school system in the Territory was yoted down, ihirtyseven votes being in favor and over fee thousand against. A free school law was finally passed two years since, and last year there were in operation 133 public schools; in ten of these English was taught; in twelve, English and Spanish, and in one hundred and eleven Spanish alone. Prior to 1872, the Governor of the Territory says there were probably not half a dozen schools outside of Santa Fe. . At the last election about 17,000 votes were cast. In 1870there were about fifteen thousand men in the Territory over twentyone years of age who could not read nor write! It does certainly seem but simple justice to Slates already in the Union that this Territory should be content to wait until its people have developed more knowledge and capacity for self-government, before asking for further privileges. Gov. Giddings, of New Mexico, in his last annual message, which was not quoted in the profuse excerpts made by the advocates of admission yesterday, says : "Here is a people one thousand miles inland, away from all sources of knowledge and civilization, with scarcely the power, in the midst of the cruel, relentless and davastatine savaces everywhere surround' ing them, to secure the bread necesssary to keep soul and body together. This peo ple, transferred without their consent or choice to another government of whose laws, language or institutions tney nave no knowledge, now lift their hands and in the name of humanity ask that they may have the means of knowledge furnished them .which shall fit them to stand equal with any other commonwealth of America. Here is a practical appeal from a man who is familiar with the necessities of his nennlp. and it should be retarded. He evidently don't think that the boon of two United States Senators and a full fledged Congressman with a vote to cast, is the greatest need of New Mexico no-v. He says in so many words that her people have little knowledge of the privileges and duties of American citizenship, and that thay call in the name of humanity for such knowledge. So far as the "loyalty" of New Mexico during the war is concerned it is sufficient to say that the native population is of a class which has a habit of being loyal to the leader with most men at his back. When in 1846 the Mexican Governor Armijo ran away and General Kearney marched into the Territory at the head of his little command, and issned a proclamation declaring himself conqueror and Military Qovernor in the name of the United States, the New Mexicans of course acquiesced; and within a year every soul in the Territory, except three hundred, renounced their Mexican; allegiance. They belong to a race of easy, virtue so far as duties, of allegiance and patriotism are concerned. ' The most cheering, sign about this an cient territory dating back to the time ot the Spanish conquest is the disposition evinced of late by its rulers and leading citizens to imbibe something of the spirit of progress and break the chains of ignorance, superstition and indolence which have so long bound them and kept them for more than a quarter of a century strangers and foreigners in the Government to which thev owe allegiance. ' It is to be hoped that this new disposition will be duly fostered and encouraged; that the completion and multiplication of railroads will render, this remote Territory easily accessible, and that an infusion of Anglo-Saxon blood and energy will stir into new life its people and develop its resources so that before the lapse of many years it will become a worthy member of the Union. . Max. STATE NEWS. Medina has a Men's Temperance Union. Potato bugs are appearing everywhere in myriads. ' A colored woman aged 115 died recently in Akron. Seventeen Portsmouth saloonists have quit since January 1, The 10th O. V. I. will hold its second reunion at Wooster, July 4. A new census of Lancaster is being taken under auspices of the City Council. A Millersburg husband sold his oxen to get money for his wife to elope with. Dr. P. E. Munger, an old citizen of Medina and a Vale graduate, died re cently. Seventysix circus and menagerie companies will travel through the State this season. A coolness is growing up between Toledo ice dealers and their patrons. Trouble, extortion. Elijah Hart sr.. a veteran of the war of 1812, died at Mifflin, Ashlmd county, in the MOth year of his age. The identical table on which the Con stitution of 1802 was signed, is still in the Court Ilouse at Chillicothe. A Madison county man has taken a contract of shearing four thousand sheep for one stock shipping firm, at 9 cents! per Head. A Piqua girl who had a quarrel with a lover, remarked to a friend that "she wasn't on squeezing terms with that fraud any more." The nineteenth national reunion of the North American Sangerbund will be held at Cleveland, commencing June 22. An immense hall lor its accommodation will be erected on Euclid avenue. The orchestra will number 150 persons and the chorus contain 1500 voices. Mile. Lucca is expected to take a part. A KegrKrds Advertising. Cincinnati Saturday Night. There is a class of business men who don't think advertising does them any good, unless a customer drops in at frequent interivals during the day, with a paper in his hand, and says: "I Bee by your advertisement in this paper that you are selling so and so." if they put a card in the paper which coBts them a couple of dollars, they are aching to have a customer remark, after making a purchase, "I wouldn't thought of coming here, only I read your card in the ." For then, you see, they are satisfied advertising is doing them some good. Otherwise, they might think the customer would have come anyhow without that two dollar outlay. But customers don't do that, as a general thing. They don't bother themselves so much about where the article they want was advertised. They only know their attention wan attracted by the advertisement of something they particularly desired. A man will glance over an advertising coluin with the utmost in difference, until his eye is caught by something he wants, or thinks he wants, and that particular advertisement begins to work immediately. The virus has entered his blond, and the more violent symptoms, such as rushing to the store and calling for the goods, will quickly succeed.We know a man who makes a point of asking each customer where, he saw the advertisement which induced him to come and trade with him, keeping a careful memorandum of the replies. When he sums the matter up he means to advertise exclusively in the paper that did him the most good. How would it do for a circus proprietor to stop people going into his show and interrogate them as to the particular street corner the bills were on that Induced him to come to the circus, and ascertaining as near as possible from such data where it was, do all his posting on that corner thereafter. Just as sensible as it would be to advertise only in the paper supposed to influence the most trade. Fact is, advertising is not one of the exact sciences as yet. It is governed by accident a great deal. Could that great and successful advertiser Barnuni figure itdown to a nicety j list what paper helped him most in his struggle to prominence in his busines and consequent health? He would tell you the scale was difficult to fix. The man who acts upon the principle that he must see every dollar invested in a newspaper advertisement come directly into his pocket again in a line that can be distinctly traced, will never be a success, no mater what his business may be. NeiiHoiinble Food. Seribner's. The wholesomeness of food depends nearly as much on the time it is taken as on the quantity. We have grown so luxurious in our pnysicai as wen as mental tastes, that we are constantly tempted to eat things out of season. Yielding to the temptation, as we often do, we pay the penalty, soon or late, in temporary or chronic derangement of our health. The meat which is excellent in cold, may not be desirable in warm weather ; fish is best during spring and early summer; veget aides and fruit are nutritious when they are fullv riiiened by sun and season, and not artificially stimulated. Nature knows what she is doing ; she furnishes for every latitude the productions fittest lor such latitude. We need variety, not so much at one time, as from time to time. The delicacies of the season will not hurt us ; but the delicacies out of season certainly will, if long continued. The apiietite so jaded as to crave oysters in July, or strawberries in Uecemoer, needs careiui correction by the adoption of the simplest habits. The palate naturally relishes what Nature has near at hand. Asa rule, not only is the simplest food the best food. but the most seasonable is, in the long run, the most appetizing, mere is no difficult in determining what we should eat, since the products of our climate show us plainly month by month. Fish, flesh and fruit, by their plumpness, tenderness and ripeness, themselves denote when they are ready to be eaten. ,V sound stomach will profit by whatever an nnspoiled palate enjoys. t BY TELEGRAPH TO THE 6810 STATE JOURNAL Night Dispatches.

The Court of Common Pleas convened this morning, Judge Adams presiding. The Court is now engaged with the criminal docket.' . General Morgan, counsel for the defendant Secord, indicted for forgery, made a motion this morning for a con tinuance, supported by an affidavit. The Court ruled that the affidavit must set forth what the defendant intended to prove. . ' ' To this ruling General Morgan took ex ceptions, and rather curtly told to Court "that he had understood that the Court had said off the bench, that the defendant becord must go to trial." The Court replied, "That might be.so or it might not, but that the ruling as to what the affidavit must contain, was made by the Court." Other bickerings were had, when General Morgan told the Court that "he was responsible for what he said." Judge Adams rejoined, "So am I." TIiub the case stands. McFeely is making great quantities of coffee, and Gregory is cleaning up a couple of shotguns, but what for, the Lord only knows. The Cleveland, Mt. Vernon and Columbus railroad will carry passengers at half fare to the sanguinary field, if a meeting occurs.

Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Sawyer to-night made a long statement before the committee on W ays and Means, in relation to his action in the Sanborn contracts. He referred particularly to the Delaware, iJickawanna and western railroad case, placing the responsibility for the payments to Sanborn upon oolici tor Banfield, and claimed that the com mittee would be doing an act of injustice in reporting a resolution of censure open Richardson, Banfield and himself. He says: "I have made personal inquiry of in dividual members of the committee whether there was any evidence whatever anecting inmnouslr mv personal or om cial integrity, to which they have invari ably replied nothing, l et it la now pro pofed to censure us in the House of Rep. resentatives, and to put upon us a stigma which will be regarded as an indorsement of the slanderous charges with which the voice of the press has wrung, and add strength to the yells of the whole pack who have been barking for weeks and months at men the latchet of whose snoes they are worthy to unloose." XL1II Congress First Session. . . . Washington, May 25. altSNATE. , : Mr. Cookling presented a memorial of Mrs. Helva A.

Mr. Sargent said the deficiency bill last year appropriated $11,000,000, and several years ago $20,000,000 were appropriated by a similar bill. The present bill appropriated less than $400,000. Tnc committee had made very few changes in it as passed by the House, As it came from that body the bill appropriated $3,372,155.

There are several varieties of the cultivated celery, the red and white being the principal upright ones; the red is coarser and harder than the white, and 'is very good for stews and soups. The blanched footstalks of the leaves are the parts used as an esculent. The Italians take the unblanched leaves for roup. while the seeds alone will communicate an agreeable flavor to certain culinary preparations. Celeriac, or turnip-rooted celery, is more hardy than the upright mniis, ana me root is only used, it attains a considerable size, especially in Germany, where it is esteemed as an ingredient, or by itself. A choice salad is made of ths root, which is boiled, sliced when cold, and mixed with oil and vinegar. It SUlllIERqPENING! O". H .

The most favorable soil for the growth of celery is a rich vegetable mould. The plant is raised from seed sown in spring, an early crop being sometimes brought forward in a moderate hot-bed. When the plants are from two to four inches high, the seed bed is thinned, and those removed are transplanted, from three to six inches apart from each other, in an intermediate bed. They remain in this situation until they become vigorous plants of from six to twelve inches high ; they are then finally transplanted. The plants arc placed from five to ten inches apart, and as vegetation goes forward, the stems are gradually earthed in; this operation being repeated every fortnight, till at length they are covered to one and even two feet high, in order that they may be blanched, and thus a considerable portion be made edible.

The Great Van Amburgh Company's wonder of wonders bad a splendid patronage yesterday afternoon and evening. Last night the people, were packed from the top seats to the ring. The show is ah excellent one, and we give it the unqualified endorsement that enterprising management and faithfulness to representations in advance, deserve. Both departments of the show are fully worthy of the patronage of the public. The menagerie consists of a fine collection of rare animals, and is remarkable for cleanliness and facilities for patrons to Bee. The circus department presents some of the very finest of modern arenic attractions, and is intensely interesting from the grand entree to the fine bare-back act by Frank Gardner, which closes the performance. The establishment shows ev erywhere the marks of experienced man agement; and Mr. Frost is an able and experienced manager. The beBt of order prevailed; there was first-class management in seating a mass of people, and ev erybody seemed comfortable. The estab lishment made a splendid hit, both in placing the people, and in its treasury, and we may reasonably look for it to come again. Hills-Ills oi' Pylhlas.

Pending its discussion the Senate Adjourned, out of respect to Representative Melli'h, deceased. 11mm The' Banking committee reported a substitute for the Senate Currency bill. A motion to suspend the rules and take it up for consideration was lost. The death of Representative Mellish, of New York, was announced by Mr. Tremain, and appropriate remarks were made by Mrssrs. Tremain, Worid, Kelly, Lawrence, Hoar and Cox. A committee was then appointed to superintend the funeral and the ilouse adjourned. ' The letter of General Sherwood in favor of inflation has been published in pamphlet form, and large numbers of it are being circulated by the inllationistf. It makes some of the best points thai have been made by any writer or speaker on that Bide. Toledo has been trying for a year to get a cow ordinance passed all the Toledo papers are full of editorials and communications on the subject. Not that Toledo cares anything about enforcing an ordinance against cows-r-it is the bullfrogs they areajlafler;. A State Convention of Ohio journalists will assemble at Amboe Hall, this city, on Friday next. The prospects are flattering for a large convocation of quill-drivers, and the meeting is expected to result in the transaction of business Important to the profession. ' The Toledo Blade claims fifty thousand population for Toledo, and avers that there are now 430 buildings in process of erection in the different wards, "on a somewhat hasty count." If it hadn't been for the panic, the Blade goes on to say, the population in 1875 would have been 50,000. . We do not know what the Blade means by it that is what it says. " The population to-day will fall little if any below 50,000 ;" and, " Those who have estimated the population of the city in 1875 at fifty thousand, will find their expectations realized, unless business should sutler even greater depression than at present." In pursuance of our object to get at the facts, by publishing the views of reputable citizens from all the different stand poiuts, we publish a letter from a citizen who has no connection with the Nelsonville strike, either as Operator or Miner, or even indirectly, as a trader ib the wares used by either side. The writer of the article is well known to us by repute, and we feel safe in vouching for his fairness and candor, so far as it is possible for one to be impartial who has a pride in the prosperity of the Valley, and a warm interest in its good name. We desire at this time only to supplement his article by one suggestion : There seems to be an unreasonable prejudice against some of the Operators who are also dealeis in articles of consumption and supply for the miners, on the part of other dealers, because these latter seem to suppose that their business is injured by the rivalry in their particular line of trade. Kow, it is safe to suppose that the Operators, by reason of having large capital at their command, may be ible to furnish the miners at lower rates than some of the older dealers; but this is not only no disadvantage but a positive benefit to the miners, and is a great help to the prosperity of the entire commnnity. In addition to this, it seems an error on the part of the rival small dealers to suppose that their business can be destroyed by competition of the kind. Competition can destroy their business only on the presumption that they are inferior in enterprise and capacity. Competition does not destroy legitimate business it simply enlarges and fosters it Increased facilities do not destroy bus! ness they create new business. , East End Knllrvad. We learn thaf an effort is about to be made to revive the project of the Columbus and Ferrara railroad, which bids fair to be a success several of the leading capitalists of the east end of the City having taken hold of the matter with a determination to put it through. u-.L. , The Atlantic and Lake Erie company recently closed a contract with B. B; Me. Donald & Co., a responsible ; firm, jfor the completion of that cdmpany's road from New Lexington, in Perry county, to Salina, in Athens county. That company's line is i nearly ; all graded between Pleasantville, ,1'airfleld County, and Bremen (the junction with the Cincinnati and Muskingum Valley road), so that it only remains to make arrangements to build the line from Columbus to Pleasantville, and we shall have a continuous line from Columbus to Salina, passing through thirtyone miles of the Great Vein coal field. It is understood that the Atlantic and Lake Erie company stand ready to make satisfactory running arrangements with the Columbus and Ferrara company to reach the coal fields, or that that company will extend its road to Columbus, if that plan be preferred by our citizens. Should the Atlantic and Lake Erie construct the proposed extension from Pleasantville to Columbus, such action will not involve any abandonment of the direct line to Toledo via Granville, Mt. Gilead, etc., although the Columbus extension may be as important as the through line to the lakes. It is understood that the President and Directors of the Atlantic and Lake Erie com pany are ready to fix the amount of money (to be invested either in stock or bonds) which will be required of Columbus to insure the extension to this city. Is New Mexico Ready for Admission ? Washington, D. C , May 22, 1874. To the Editor of the Ohio State Journal : '. The House yesterday took up and, after a short debate, passed the bill for the admission into the Union of New Mexico. Mr. Elkins, the delegate from that Territory, made a somewhat elaborate speech in favor of the bill, advocating its passage on the ground of treaty stipulations made at the time of the cession of the Territory by Mexico to the United States; the claims of population, intelligence and loyalty of the people; and the great material resources of the Territory which, according to his logic, cannot heexpected to develop under a territorial form of government. The discussion gave Mr. Poller, of New York, an opportunity to deliver a most remarkable speech on otir form of govenniueiit and the tendency to centralization of power. Mr. Potter is an aflected gentleman, who parts his hair in the middle, believes in State sovereignty to itB full extent, and also in peaceable secession. His remarks called out a repudiation of his views from Cox, as a representative of the Democracy. The real, sound objections to the admission of New Mexico at this time were well, though briefly, stated by Mr. Hoar, of Massachusetts, but met with little consideration. It is to he hoped that the bill will be defeated in the Senate. New Mexico had, according to the census of 1870, a population of ahout 1)1,000, about twothirds of the number required to entitle her to one member of Congress under the present apportionment. While possessing, according to the statements of those interested in her admission, vast undeveloped resources, her actual, available and tangible wealth falls far below that of other territories not yet admitted, which, besides, have a class of population much better adapted and entitled to the privileges of a State organization. The people of that Territory are in hardly any respect fitted to form a State which Bhull be a sister to Ohio or auy other Stale now organized. The population is very largely Mexican and Spanish, having changed little since the cession to the United States. The conduct of public business in the territorial Legislature is now largely con-dueled through interpreters, the members being unable to understand or speak the English language. In the free schools of the Territory, so much vaunted by those who yesterday advocated the passage of the bill and seemed to possess great zeal with little knowledge, the Spanish language is to day generally spoken and taught. Ignorance prevails to an alarming extent. A few years since a proposition to establish a free school system in the Territory was yoted down, ihirtyseven votes being in favor and over fee thousand against. A free school law was finally passed two years since, and last year there were in operation 133 public schools; in ten of these English was taught; in twelve, English and Spanish, and in one hundred and eleven Spanish alone. Prior to 1872, the Governor of the Territory says there were probably not half a dozen schools outside of Santa Fe. . At the last election about 17,000 votes were cast. In 1870there were about fifteen thousand men in the Territory over twentyone years of age who could not read nor write! It does certainly seem but simple justice to Slates already in the Union that this Territory should be content to wait until its people have developed more knowledge and capacity for self-government, before asking for further privileges. Gov. Giddings, of New Mexico, in his last annual message, which was not quoted in the profuse excerpts made by the advocates of admission yesterday, says : "Here is a people one thousand miles inland, away from all sources of knowledge and civilization, with scarcely the power, in the midst of the cruel, relentless and davastatine savaces everywhere surround' ing them, to secure the bread necesssary to keep soul and body together. This peo ple, transferred without their consent or choice to another government of whose laws, language or institutions tney nave no knowledge, now lift their hands and in the name of humanity ask that they may have the means of knowledge furnished them .which shall fit them to stand equal with any other commonwealth of America. Here is a practical appeal from a man who is familiar with the necessities of his nennlp. and it should be retarded. He evidently don't think that the boon of two United States Senators and a full fledged Congressman with a vote to cast, is the greatest need of New Mexico no-v. He says in so many words that her people have little knowledge of the privileges and duties of American citizenship, and that thay call in the name of humanity for such knowledge. So far as the "loyalty" of New Mexico during the war is concerned it is sufficient to say that the native population is of a class which has a habit of being loyal to the leader with most men at his back. When in 1846 the Mexican Governor Armijo ran away and General Kearney marched into the Territory at the head of his little command, and issned a proclamation declaring himself conqueror and Military Qovernor in the name of the United States, the New Mexicans of course acquiesced; and within a year every soul in the Territory, except three hundred, renounced their Mexican; allegiance. They belong to a race of easy, virtue so far as duties, of allegiance and patriotism are concerned. ' The most cheering, sign about this an cient territory dating back to the time ot the Spanish conquest is the disposition evinced of late by its rulers and leading citizens to imbibe something of the spirit of progress and break the chains of ignorance, superstition and indolence which have so long bound them and kept them for more than a quarter of a century strangers and foreigners in the Government to which thev owe allegiance. ' It is to be hoped that this new disposition will be duly fostered and encouraged; that the completion and multiplication of railroads will render, this remote Territory easily accessible, and that an infusion of Anglo-Saxon blood and energy will stir into new life its people and develop its resources so that before the lapse of many years it will become a worthy member of the Union. .

There is a class of business men who don't think advertising does them any good, unless a customer drops in at frequent interivals during the day, with a paper in his hand, and says: "I Bee by your advertisement in this paper that you are selling so and so." if they put a card in the paper which coBts them a couple of dollars, they are aching to have a customer remark, after making a purchase, "I wouldn't thought of coming here, only I read your card in the ." For then, you see, they are satisfied advertising is doing them some good. Otherwise, they might think the customer would have come anyhow without that two dollar outlay. But customers don't do that, as a general thing. They don't bother themselves so much about where the article they want was advertised. They only know their attention wan attracted by the advertisement of something they particularly desired. A man will glance over an advertising coluin with the utmost in difference, until his eye is caught by something he wants, or thinks he wants, and that particular advertisement begins to work immediately. The virus has entered his blond, and the more violent symptoms, such as rushing to the store and calling for the goods, will quickly succeed.We know a man who makes a point of asking each customer where, he saw the advertisement which induced him to come and trade with him, keeping a careful memorandum of the replies. When he sums the matter up he means to advertise exclusively in the paper that did him the most good. How would it do for a circus proprietor to stop people going into his show and interrogate them as to the particular street corner the bills were on that Induced him to come to the circus, and ascertaining as near as possible from such data where it was, do all his posting on that corner thereafter. Just as sensible as it would be to advertise only in the paper supposed to influence the most trade. Fact is, advertising is not one of the exact sciences as yet. It is governed by accident a great deal. Could that great and successful advertiser Barnuni figure itdown to a nicety j list what paper helped him most in his struggle to prominence in his busines and consequent health? He would tell you the scale was difficult to fix. The man who acts upon the principle that he must see every dollar invested in a newspaper advertisement come directly into his pocket again in a line that can be distinctly traced, will never be a success, no mater what his business may be. NeiiHoiinble Food. Seribner's. The wholesomeness of food depends nearly as much on the time it is taken as on the quantity. We have grown so luxurious in our pnysicai as wen as mental tastes, that we are constantly tempted to eat things out of season. Yielding to the temptation, as we often do, we pay the penalty, soon or late, in temporary or chronic derangement of our health. The meat which is excellent in cold, may not be desirable in warm weather ; fish is best during spring and early summer; veget aides and fruit are nutritious when they are fullv riiiened by sun and season, and not artificially stimulated. Nature knows what she is doing ; she furnishes for every latitude the productions fittest lor such latitude. We need variety, not so much at one time, as from time to time. The delicacies of the season will not hurt us ; but the delicacies out of season certainly will, if long continued. The apiietite so jaded as to crave oysters in July, or strawberries in Uecemoer, needs careiui correction by the adoption of the simplest habits. The palate naturally relishes what Nature has near at hand. Asa rule, not only is the simplest food the best food. but the most seasonable is, in the long run, the most appetizing, mere is no difficult in determining what we should eat, since the products of our climate show us plainly month by month. Fish, flesh and fruit, by their plumpness, tenderness and ripeness, themselves denote when they are ready to be eaten. ,V sound stomach will profit by whatever an nnspoiled palate enjoys. t BY TELEGRAPH TO THE 6810 STATE JOURNAL Night Dispatches.

The Court ruled that the affidavit must set forth what the defendant intended to prove. . ' ' To this ruling General Morgan took ex ceptions, and rather curtly told to Court "that he had understood that the Court had said off the bench, that the defendant becord must go to trial." The Court replied, "That might be.so or it might not, but that the ruling as to what the affidavit must contain, was made by the Court." Other bickerings were had, when General Morgan told the Court that "he was responsible for what he said." Judge Adams rejoined, "So am I." TIiub the case stands.

There are several varieties of the cultivated celery, the red and white being the principal upright ones; the red is coarser and harder than the white, and 'is very good for stews and soups. The blanched footstalks of the leaves are the parts used as an esculent. The Italians take the unblanched leaves for roup. while the seeds alone will communicate an agreeable flavor to certain culinary preparations. Celeriac, or turnip-rooted celery, is more hardy than the upright mniis, ana me root is only used, it attains a considerable size, especially in Germany, where it is esteemed as an ingredient, or by itself. A choice salad is made of ths root, which is boiled, sliced when cold, and mixed with oil and vinegar. It SUlllIERqPENING! O". H .

The most favorable soil for the growth of celery is a rich vegetable mould. The plant is raised from seed sown in spring, an early crop being sometimes brought forward in a moderate hot-bed. When the plants are from two to four inches high, the seed bed is thinned, and those removed are transplanted, from three to six inches apart from each other, in an intermediate bed. They remain in this situation until they become vigorous plants of from six to twelve inches high ; they are then finally transplanted. The plants arc placed from five to ten inches apart, and as vegetation goes forward, the stems are gradually earthed in; this operation being repeated every fortnight, till at length they are covered to one and even two feet high, in order that they may be blanched, and thus a considerable portion be made edible.
